[QUOTE="stormi, post: 766856, member: 52107"] I think height wise, I'm good,... the hardest part is the kicking, and I suspect I'll eventually be able to suck it up enough as to not have too much trouble with that too. :) Once I'm on it, I can touch with the balls of my feet, and I'm comfortable. Of course, the suspension isn't even broken in yet either, so I might even find that eventually, the bike comes down to my level all by itself. :) How tall is your son? I'm just shy of 5'5", with a 30" inseam,.. which I think is my problem. (Faulty design from the baby factory. :) ) If he's used to starting bikes and is about the same height, he's probably fine. I started out with a TTR-125L last year, so I'm not exceptionally accustomed to kicking a full-sized bike, esp. one that's as tall as this. The suspension mods were explained to me as: revalving (?) the front shocks, putting in a different rear shock, and then there's the "cutting the subframe" option. All of which seemed fairly major (i.e. we can't do them ourselves) and so we figured we'd see what we could get away with with external mods first. Plus I want the suspension to break in a bit first, so that we can see if there really is a need to go any further. The bike only has 14.6Kms total on it so far! [/QUOTE]
